It's fine but not sure I'd stay again
Pros:

The staff were lovely, there has been a lot of effort to make it seem like an upper class establishment. It was perfectly okay for the one night.

Cons:

The mattress was the main issue, it was uncomfortable and it smelt like bleach, to the point the smell woke us up. We knew we'd be woken up by the patrons of the pub, and we were woken up by them leaving but it was short and quick and expected as it was a bank holiday Friday night. The shower did have a dripping sound also and the TV kept losing signal. The coffee machine was also a bit broken but still managed to get a coffee in the morning. Perfect fine for one night but not the best

Very noisy until 2am, so unfortunately I would not recommend d.
Pros:

Nice room, comfortable bed.

Cons:

Very noisy. Even though we were told that the doors were shut at 11pm and no staff would be on the premises, there was very loud music playing and staff in the bar until at least 2am.
